Total visits at performances in the Netherlands were significantly lower in 2020 and 2021 compared to previous years due to the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite the sharp decline in attendance during the health crisis, music shows were the most visited performances in 2021. However, while music events recorded roughly nine million visits in pre-pandemic years, this figure declined to around 1.7 million in 2021.
